Founded by Californian climber and surfer, Yvon Chouinard, Patagonia was born as a spin-off of Chouinard Equipment, a small shop near the Rincon surf breaks in California, who were known for making some of the world’s best climbing gear. The Granite Crest Rain Jacket is a 3-layer waterproof-breathable technical shell equipped with two-way pit zips for ventilation and a helmet-compatible hood.

Length: 68cm (size small). Our model is 180.3cm (5’11”) tall with a 83.8cm (33”) bust, a 61.0cm (24”) waist and 87.6cm (34.5”) hips.

- Three-layer shell is built of NetPlus® 100% postconsumer recycled nylon ripstop made from recycled fishing nets
- Hood with a laminated visor effectively sheds water, plus two-way adjustment provides good visibility in poor conditions, with or without a helmet
- Center-front zipper and a chest pocket have watertight zips and zipper garages; two welt handwarmer pockets stay clear of a pack waistbelt or a harness
- Pit zips with watertight, welted, two-way zippers provide ventilation
- Jacket has low-profile self-fabric hook-and-loop cuff closures and self-stuffs into the left-chest pocket
- Adjustable drawcord cinch at the hem is routed up through the front pockets to seal out weather and reduce bulk under a pack waistbelt
